[Nfb-web] Creating Blogs and Podcast Feeds

[Ruth Anne Wheeler]

Peter,
That is a nice layout in TN.
This was our "Illinois homegrown" podcast, first time out 
podcasting.  For 2004, we had the sound files for download, but that 
did not work well at all, as it was just bulky and not really very 
useful.  The podcast worked much better for us, but I definitely got 
some ideas for expanding from your page.  It was originally just a 
"local" thing - those who couldn't make it to convention and those 
who were there, but wanted to listen again to a portion.  The 
experiment was really well received in the affiliate, so I know we 
will be doing it again.  Thanks for sending the page from yours on.  :-)
Have a great weekend!
